Recitation By Muhammad Yusuf

The obligation of respecting Al-Qur’an-5Assalam olaikum,Besides reading it one should also practically apply the dictates of the Qur’an to one’s life.The Qur’an should be kept above the other books. Nothing should be kept on a higher position than the Quran, in order to show reverence to the Book of Allah (swt).If the pages of Al-Quran get torn, they should be burnt and the ash should either be buried or thrown into a river.If Quranic verses are found to be published in newspapers then they should be cut and kept in a safe place. They can be later burnt lest they reach the old newspapers shop.Quran should not be recited at odd or obscene places.Gold should not be used for writing Quranic verses because gold, silver etc. are worldly beauties.One should make a Dua after finishing the recitation of whole Qur’an. Hadhrat Anas b Maalik (ra) used to call the members of family and then make dua after completing the recitation of Qur’an.
